Summary

A pilot, prospective, randomized clinical trial is proposed. It is primarily aimed at assessing the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine and bone metabolism mediators adjacent to Laser-Lok microgrooved (LL) or machined (M) transmucosal healing abutments. The pilot study would seek recruitment of 12 subjects requiring replacement of a single, toothbound molar or premolar in the maxilla or mandible with an implant-supported restoration.
